I believe we are all the same. I believe all life (actually everything is the same, for it is). However, along the lines of people, we are the same but different, depending on which dimension of thought you are considering.
E.g -
On a World scale we are all of the human species. We all function the same at a sub-conscious level. Thoughts/functions such as instinct, life (wanting to live), survival, sex, reproduction, happiness, etc, etc, we all share.
On an individual level, we are all different, as in we all make our own decisions as what to do/think to a certain degree.
In the end however you will find that all people adhere to their shared sub-conscious instincts.
On a much larger scale (I will say Universal), everthing is made of the same thing, hence all the same. Everybody (well those who think) already know this, but they prefer to think on an individual level much of the time.
Its easier that way.
What if what you think is the holy spirit is something else?

Quote:God is external from the self and thusly unprovable, but through the holy spirit can be "known" and better defined and seem more real and less intangible. Opinions?
